General description

(+)-Cedrol is a crystalline hydrated product of α-cedrene, which is a sesquiterpene found in cedar-wood oil. It can be used as a fragrance ingredient in cosmetics, shampoos, and soaps as well as in non-cosmetic products such as cleaners and detergents. (±) Cedrol can be synthesized by intramolecular Diels-Alder reaction of alkyl cyclopentadiene.

Application

(+)-Cedrol can be used as a starting material for the preparation of cedryl acetate by acetylation using acetic anhydride in the presence of an acid catalyst. It can also be incorporated as a precursor for the total synthesis of rare illicium sesquiterpene (+)-pseudoanisatin via selective C-H bond functionalization.
